SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 325,840, dated September 8, 1885.

Application tiled October 1G, 1884. (No model.)

To all whom it 'may con/cern,.- l

Be it known that I, EARL F. HOUGH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Oakland, in the county of Alameda and State of California, have invented a new and useful Egg- Beater and Liquor-Mixer, of which the following is a specification.

Referring to the accompanying drawings,

forming apart of this speciicatiomlFigure 1 is a front elevation of my im proved egg-beater and liquor-mixer. Fig. 2 is likewise a front elevation, partly in section.

Similar letters of reference are usedto indicate like parts throughout the several figures.

each other at vertical right angles.

. the stem revolves freely. The lower part of the bore of this cap is crossed by a diaphragm, a, and one of the strands of the stem rests against the under side thereof, while the other strand projects through the said diaphragm, and is furnished on its interior end with a small collar or lug, b, which prevents the withdrawal of the stem from the head, while at the same time a free revolution is permitted.

Within the basket or beaters is placed the bowl of a spoon, D, which is soldered or otherwise securely Iixed to the base of the basket. By means of this spoon the contents of the tumbler or vessel are constantly thrown or drawn downward to the bottom of the vessel as the beaters are operated, and none of the contents is thrown out over the rim or tbp of the vessel in which the mixing is performed. The spoon-bowl is made convex on one side and concave upon the other side, as shown.

Having th us described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,

In au egg-beater and liquorimixer, the combination of the stem Aand beaters C, formed of a single wire, said'stem being composed of two spirallytwisted strands, one of which is extended beyond the end of the other and provided at or near its end with a lug or eollar, b, the internally-spirally-grooved thimble B,loosely mounted onsaid stem, and the hollow handle or cap F, having aperforated diaphragm or bearing, a, substantially as shown and described.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand and seal.
